Mittens proposes a $17,000 cap on ALL itemized deductions???

Here's the "money" quote, no pun intended:

""As an option you could say everybody's going to get up to a $17,000 deduction. And you could use your charitable deduction, your home mortgage deduction, or others — your health care deduction, and you can fill that bucket, if you will, that $17,000 bucket that way." - Mitt Romney

2. What they are still not talking about!

Tomorrow night is the big debate in Denver, and Romney is cited as having talked about his tax policy and specifics, but what has he left out?

What is Obama leaving out?

It's that issue the Green Party candidate, Jill Stein, responded to as reported yesterday by Peter J. Reilly at Forbes.

Jill indicated she thought the give-away to "ministers" (e.g., as much income tax free as they can get others to give them as long as they spend it on housing) was a violation of church and state principles; further indicating she would support the FFRF challenge to that law.

But where do Obama and Romney, the major party candidates whose campaigns have been marked by talk of "God", "taxes" and the "Constitution", stand on the issue.

Will Congress and the next President act to eliminate the offensive law that has been used to allow, for example, "basketball ministers" at private schools like Pepperdine thousands and thousands in tax free income and televangelists millions in tax free income?

Will Romney and Obama even be pressed to speak to this important, public issue.
